The journey of Beryl Gardinant is set to continue, as the final episode of From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman (Katainaka no Ossan, Kensei ni Naru) Season 2 concluded with the confirmation that a third season is currently in production. An announcement visual has been released to commemorate the news, though specific details regarding a premiere window or returning staff members remain unconfirmed.
Produced by the collaborative team of Passione and Hayabusa Film, the series has maintained a steady presence since its debut. While the anime is based on Shigeru Sagazaki’s light novel series, it also draws from the popular manga adaptation by Kazuki Satou. The franchise has seen significant commercial success, boasting 11 million copies in circulation across its various formats.
For those catching up on the series, the anime is currently available for streaming via Amazon Prime. While the series holds a 70/100 average on AniList and a 75/100 on Kitsu as of late September 2026, the quick turnaround for a third season suggests strong confidence from the production committee, which includes NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan. With the narrative expanding on Beryl's transition from a rural instructor to a renowned master, it remains to be seen how the upcoming season will adapt the remaining volumes of the light novel.
